What They Say:
Check out these quotes from reviews & previews
"Upon first inspection gamers may be concerned that RR5 only offers one true race mode, that being the Grand Prix. Never fear though, have some patience, rack up a few victories here and whole new gameplay modes will be unlocked for you to enjoy."
"From the start it's obvious that Ridge Racer V was designed to be a showpiece for the PS2 Emotion Engine, not for the dual shock controller."
"...there's the same solid Ridge Racer gameplay mechanics... fences, road, and buildings flicker due to the lack of anti-aliasing... no spark of imagination or creativity here, no backdrops that truly inspire..."
"Wonderful selection screens, cool options menus and amazingly non-cheesy but still eminently Japanese music tracks all add to the experience."
"Graphically, Ridge Racer V is the most impressive of the PlayStation2 launch games...The gameplay in Ridge Racer V is centered on the grand-prix mode. This is the mode that will net you additional cars, trophies, and new engines."
